    Default Police themed quilt for DSIL

    I made this 2 sided quilt for my DSIL, who is a policeman and swat team member, for Christmas. I needed a 1 yd piece of a certain fabric for this quilt and asked this board for help finding it. Several great board members responded and one wonderful generous member, Phyllis, sent me that fabric and much more. That enabled me to make the quilt 2 sided.
    I can't seem to take a quilt picture with out my quilt inspector in it...he's so vain!
    I re-sized these pictures so I can upload them...hope it works!

    Love your quilt and your thoughtfulness in custom making it for you SIL. My son has been in law enforcement for years. Great job and a wonderful tribute.

    Very nice, I made a quilt with the fire house fabric for a nephew. He keeps it at the station for the 24 hour shifts.
